in the romney campaign. there hasn't been a lot of focus on what the president promised and where he fell short. i think certainly through the end of the debate season, there's going to be a huge focus on promises he made that he couldn't keep. whether it was immigration reform and his promise to tackle that right away. he didn't do it, never put a serious effort into it. his promise that health care would get more popular over time. in fact, it still remains a net unpopular with voters. and then also just the idea on the economy which we have heard a lot about that his policies would lower the unemployment rate below 8%. that didn't happen, it was a promise they made early on in the presidency and it's one no doubt you're going to hear a lot about tomorrow night. >> jim, is health care going to play heavy in these debates, do you think? is it something we're going to hear about? and how will mitt romney deal with it? he's had months and years you could argue to figure out his answer on it. how does he addre

mitt romney's at 46%. and the poll finds a majority of americans now approve of the way that the president's handling his job. over 51% while 42% believe the country's heading in the right direction, up from 13% two weeks ago. however, when they're asked about the candidates and whether their opinion of the candidates changed after the first debate, 19% say they view the president more negatively. 37% say they have a better view of mitt romney. there's also a new politico/george washington university poll out of ten battleground states including ohio, florida and virginia which shows mitt romney ahead in the swing states 50%-48%. that's a statistical tie. there's also a new public policy poll of likely voters in the state that may matter the most this year, ohio, that actually has the president up by 5 percentage points. a lot to digest here. let's start, though, with john heilemann. john, it certainly looks like it's still a jump ball as we go through the second debate. mitt romney and barack obama really
